I am trying to set up several VLAN's on a Cisco 3560 switch. These new segments should be able to communicate with VLAN 1 and even access the Internet.

Basic IP information:

Gateway: 10.1.1.2
VLAN1:   10.1.1.1/24
VLAN2:   10.1.2.1/24
VLAN3:   10.1.3.1/24

I managed to add the VLAN and have network connectivity within the VLAN's but have not been able to get routing to work correctly.

What's working:

  1. Hosts in VLAN 1 one can ping the DG and access the internet
  2. VLAN 2 & 3 are communicating with each other. Hosts in VLAN2 (e.g. 10.1.2.2) can ping hosts in VLAN3 (e.g. 10.1.3.2) on the same switch
  3. Hosts in VLAN 2 & 3 can ping the interface IP of VLAN1 (10.1.1.1)

What's not working:

  1. Hosts in VLAN 2 & 3 cannot ping the hosts in VLAN 1 on the same switch, or vice versa.
  2. Hosts in VLAN 2 & 3 cannot even ping the DG.

Here is the configuration on the switch:

#sh ip route

Gateway of last resort is 10.1.1.2 to network 0.0.0.0

     10.0.0.0/8 is variably subnetted, 3 subnets, 2 masks
C       10.1.3.0/24 is directly connected, Vlan3
C       10.1.2.0/24 is directly connected, Vlan2
C       10.1.1.0/24 is directly connected, Vlan1
S*   0.0.0.0/0 [1/0] via 10.1.1.2

Can someone point out the problem to me please?

  • What I don't wee in your question is the gateway configured on the VLAN1 hosts, and the router configuration where it show that the router knows to send traffic for VLANs 2 and 3 to 10.1.1.1.

Normally, if you have routing enabled on this switch, you should use a routed link to the other router, not a layer-2 connection. The layer-2 connection complicates things. What you should do is set up the interface to the other router with a no switchport command, and place an IP address, like 10.0.0.2 255.255.255.252 on it, and set up the router interface to the switch with 10.0.0.1 255.255.255.252.

Your hosts on VLAN 1 need to have their gateway set to 10.1.1.1, not 10.1.1.2, so that traffic destined for VLANs 2 and 3 doesn't get sent to the other router.

In any case the other router must have routes back to VLANs 2 and 3, so that it knows to send any traffic destined for those networks to the switch. Also, you will need to tell the other router to NAT for those networks, too.

  • I'd put money on your router not having return routes for VLAN 2/3. And definitely check your default gateway on your VLAN 1 hosts, should be the switch. Well said, Ron.
